[Colorado-Talk] NFBCO Committees

[Scott C. LaBarre]

Greetings everyone:

 

I hope all of you are enjoying Winter or at least putting up with it.  In
any event, I write you today about NFBCO committees.  The NFBCO Board has
established a number of committees to help us get our work done.  Below I
have identified several of these committees and encourage folks to apply to
be active in one   or more of these committees.  If you are interested,
please send us a message indicating which committee/committees in which you
are interested.  Also, please tell us in a sentence or two why you are
applying for a particular committee.  We cannot guarantee that everyone will
get their first choice.  We need to limit the size of some of these
committees so that they can remain effective.  Please email Lisa with your
interests at:

 

lkb at labarrelaw.com <mailto:lkb at labarrelaw.com> 

 

I ask that you apply for committee service by February 28th.

 

Thanks,

Scott
